So, this was fun to write xD Like, a lot of fun. I hope Bella appeared more confident in this chapter. The next chapter is when Max first meets James. It's a huge time skip I guess. I'd rather skip over Bella and Edwards budding romance mainly because nothing changed and it happens the same and we already know how it happened. The only difference is, Bella isn't a little whiny toddler when Edward doesn't pay attention to her. I think you'll like how James shows up next chapter. It's gonna be the baseball thing going on.

Tobi-Is-Fluffy-Chan: I'm glad my story gave you inspiration xD It made me happy to know this. Not too much will change with the plot, since I like how Carlisle is and Jasper is fine the way he is, hopefully I can portray Emmett the way I see him, the funny older brother figure who is super protective but likes to tease you hardcore, and how Rose will be mean, but secretly caring. Esme is a motherly person, as am I, so I will make her even more like a mom who worries and wants to protect her children more then she did in the books and movies. Alice will be less scheming hopefully, and more fun and sweet. I'm glad this is interesting, I know you wanted me to update soon, so here you go!
Disclaimer: I own absolutely nothing but my character and a few side characters that will eventually be introduced.
Today was Tuesday, the first day of school for us in a new town, I had chosen to wear a pair of dark blue jeans, a long-sleeved dark grey shirt, and a dark blue short sleeved Jersey over it, an image of a crown on the back with the word crown hovering over the points. Stepping out of my room, I saw Bella wearing an identical outfit, except her shirt was pale grey and her jersey tee was green.
"We did it again Bells," I mused, linking arms with her, we even had identical brown coats. She laughed, nodding.
"I don't how we do it," she sighed as we made our way down the stairs to the kitchen, where dad had poured us each a bowl of cereal.
"Have a good day at school girls, I trust you will be able to find it," he looked at us worriedly.
"Yeah dad, I remember where it is," I grinned at him, quickly eating my bowl of cereal.
He nodded, "Well, I'll see you after work," he nodded again before leaving.
Bella finished eating a few minutes after me. Handing her bag to her, I shouldered mine and grinned. "Ready to go, dear old sis?" I asked, holding her truck keys in my hand. "I'm driving first, since I know where to go," having a photographic memory helped a lot with some things.
"I'm two minutes older then you," she scoffed, making her way outside, making me laugh.
"Still makes you older!" I skipped over to the truck, being careful of the ice patches. It was January, so it was pretty damn cold.
I watched as she slipped on the ice, I stood there with a blank look as I watched her collect herself before she carefully stood and made her way to the passenger door. Once she was safely inside, I climbed in and started up the engine, wincing at how loud it was. "Damn,"
Bella nodded, her cheeks already red from embarrassment and we hadn't even left the driveway yet.
Shrugging, I pulled out and made my way towards the direction of the school. Humming softly as I kept my eyes on the road. The urge to go fast was hitting me hard, but this damn thing doesn't go faster than the speed limit.
The school was in sight within five minutes and you could see people already showing up.
"Damn, why so early people?!" I almost shouted as I pulled into an empty spot. Glaring through the windshield, I couldn't help but huff as I turned the engine off. The silence was so deafening that my ears were ringing.
The sound of the door opening snapped me out of my dazed state and I watched my sister climb out only for her to disappear suddenly. I snorted after realizing she slipped again. Getting out myself, I grabbed my bag and watched as my sister carefully climbed back up to her feet.
"Did the ground need a hug?" I asked, amused, getting a glare from my rather shy twin.
"Shut up Max," she grumbled, before grabbing onto my shoulder as I carefully made my way across the icy patch. Once we were safely off of it, she let me go. Looking back at her, I grinned.
"Let's go get our schedules," I said, linking my arm with hers to help her cross icy patches. She was silently grateful for my presence as it made it easier to ignore the others. Or at least, that's what I think, which is usually what she thinks.
When we opened the door to the administrative office, I couldn't help the sigh of relief from the heat that poured out. Rubbing my hands together, I made my way to the desk. The woman behind it had curly red hair and she was pale, a bit pudgy too. "Excuse me," I said, causing her to look up and her eyes widened behind her glasses.
"Oh you must be the Swan twins," she said cheerfully.
I rolled my eyes, going to say something along the lines of, 'No shit, what gave you that idea,' before Bella jabbed her elbow into my ribs, causing me to glare at her.
"Let me guess, you're Isabella and you're Mackenzie," She pointed to me first then my sister, causing me to snort.
"We prefer Bella and Max, and no, I'm Max and she's Bella," I pointed to myself first then my sister, causing her to huff. Not once has someone gotten right. "And we'd like out schedules please."
The woman blushed in embarrassment and nodded, quickly handed us the papers, before explaining that the pink slip was meant for the teacher's to sign to prove that we went and we were to return them after school.
Bella assured the woman that we will bring the sheets back before dragging me out. The cold slapped me in the face almost painfully. "Damn, I know moving here was my idea, but fuck is it cold," I shuddered, following Bella. Looking down at my schedule, I saw I had Math first. "What's your first class?" I asked, automatically assuming her class was different from mine.
"English," she replied, reading through her own schedule. I couldn't help but sigh. "Different than yours?" she asked, taking a peek at my schedule.
I nodded, pocketing my schedule. "I'll walk you to your class, come on," I grinned slightly as I led her by her elbow.
It was then that we bumped into a tall black haired boy. "Hey, you must be Isabella and Mackenzie Swan," He snapped a few pictures of us. "You're really identical," he grinned, looking a bit closer to us as if trying to find a difference.
"Good luck with that boy," I said, slightly annoyed. "You won't find a difference at all,"
Bella nodded in agreement, smiling sheepishly at me before hiding slightly behind me, I mean, I am the more confident twin, I can actually talk to people, but that doesn't mean I like to.
"Wow, what's got your knickers in a twist," he asked, slightly offended.
I rolled my eyes. "Its early morning, and you're already starting with this bull," I said honestly, before dragging my sister away. "So annoying," I mumbled softly.
Bella just let me do as I pleased as I pulled her down the hall of the English block, having already memorized the map. I led her to her class with two minutes until the bell rang.
"Have fun, good luck, see you during lunch," I waved, before heading towards my own class. I didn't much care for this.

At lunch, I saw my poor dear sister being harassed by a group of students. Walking up to them, I scowled. "It'd be nice if you had waited for me," I said to my sister, causing a couple of kids to gasp.
"There's not even a slight difference," a dark-skinned boy I hadn't met yet muttered, looking between me and Bella with wide eyes.
"Yeah, I know, now, I'd like it if you kept your lips off my sister!" I sat down next to her and glared, causing Bella to sigh in annoyance.
"Max, they aren't doing anything wrong," she muttered, scowling at me, pouting slightly. She's gotten more confident over the years. She started standing up for herself more since we were in middle school, standing up for others as well. Looking at her with a smirk, I shook my head.
"Ah, poor sweet innocent Bella doesn't know when guys are hitting on her," I sighed, before glaring at Mike and the other kid. "Don't touch her if you know what's good for you,"
Mike scoffed slightly. "What can you do about it?" he asked haughtily.
"My sister is a black belt in Karate, has been for two years now," Bella said proudly and confidently. "She's started taking kick boxing and Judo classes as well,"
I nodded, "Bella's taking kick boxing as well, she's got a mean right hook, so watch out," I smirked, before standing up. "I'm going to that empty over there, you're free to follow me," I said to her, but she shook her head.
"I'm going to stay here and try to make some friends," she smiled sheepishly, but I just nodded.
"Have fun," and left her there to fend for herself. She'd have to get a back bone sooner or later. And the best way to help her do that is to push her in the deep end and watch her either sink or swim.
